Italy

Someone has flown to Italy..

It just isn't Me..boohoo..I'll be crying for two weeks.
La mancherĂ² in Italia
the direct translation is I will be lacking it in Italy .. haha!

Sekolah Menengah Pizza Hut


Have you been to Sekolah Menengah Pizza Hut ? If you haven't heard, it's in Shah Alam convention centre mall (SACC) where the food servers look like under-aged kids & the manager also looks like the Head Prefect.
The service : 3 stars out of 5. Half of the food servers were polite, the other half ..banged down a plate of garlic bread, one waitress looked so unhelpful when I asked for chili flakes, Tabasco sauce & chili sauce. Somebody 'smart' gave me pepper. Another waitress was complaining loudly about 'table 28' and 'Menyampah!'..They even have Call buttons on the table for service, but when we pressed it a few times, it just rang out in the general area of the restaurant, and no one gave a d@mn. There was the area Manager's contact number beneath that button that we considered calling. See, in school we report students misbehaving. Like this la. But of course we didn't call, because I have the option of eating at another Pizza Hut in section 13 Shah Alam.
Seriously, the ambiance was  not one of pleasing customers when the food servers are louder than the paying customers. Just like the school canteen.

Wedding photography


I've been scouting around for my Wedding day photographer since August 2009.
I've found a helpful list :http://www.malaysiabrides.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=13641
Others are : http://zulhelmitaib.com/portfolio/?page_id=14 and
http://idzwanjunaidi.fotopages.com/
http://www.liteboxphotostudio.com/
http://anyevent-photography.com/blog/

If I had extra $$ I would go for this fella : http://www.iskandaribrahim.com/
His style is really want I'm looking for. Very romantic.
Or another great one is : Kid Chan http://www.kidchan.com/portfolio/

I've emailed a few on the list with no replies.
Guess they're too busy to check and reply insignificant inquiries from little ol' me.
If you want to inquire, be sure to :
1. Call their phone directly.
2. If you want to email, sign off with Name plus anak Datuk something at the back,then probably they will reply.

I've learned that with this wedding preparation-inquiries thing, there's no room to be shy.

But I still am :)

Wedding make up

Choosing my wedding make up artist is another wonderful headache.



Your fate (face) is in their hands.

I asked Saidatulnisa http://98.130.233.68/
her bridal boutique's in kompleks PKNS Shah Alam. Her make up is RM 1000. Her assistant's is RM 600. She has 3 a$$istants. I heard the good one is Liza.
I called Sai on Mon afternoon, She was like just woken up from a nap, said she doesnt have her work schedule, its with her assistant at her shop, but her assistant also cuti, so could I leave my contact & wedding details? and her assistant would get back to me the next day..Next day also no response..So booked someone else instead.

Then there's Tiar Zainal. http://www.myspace.com/tiya_zainal
Recommended by Lynda Rahim's bridal boutique. http://www.lyndarahim.com/main.html
Tiar costs RM 950 in the KL area. For Shah Alam 'add RM 50 please'.
As if Shah Alam is not in klang valley..?
Ok la...can consider petrol & toll ..But it should be inclusive for such price, no ?

Anyway, the one I found most amusing is http://nurulshukor.blogspot.com/?zx=d9f2d184422cb055 because for Nurul shukor's 'fabulous touch' its RM 1200 for KL area, and Shah Alam area can add another RM 300 for what I have no idea, please enlighten me.
For RM1500 I can go for a 3 night honeymoon at a 5 star hotel.

Sue Cantik is popular too..Only got Facebook:  http://www.facebook.com/sue.cantik contact number is : 019-2742947. Called her, but she was apologetic and fully booked.

Now this I like..Freda Lestari Putra
http://fredalestariputra.com/my%20qebaya.html
Nice , pleasant person, and humble.
Price: RM 500 with accessories. His bridal couture workmanship is so Dreamy..

I am also curious whether a woman or a Man's workmanship on make up is better..I'll see soon enough.
Let's make up fabulously on our Big Day ! :) (without breaking the bank..)
